IRA and 401k plans should not be considered to be pensions for collateral source purposes.
In the determination of collateral source amounts of Workers Compensation and Social Security, only
the annuity value of payments to be received should be used.
Social Security paid on behalf of a victims children should not be collateral source.
If Social Security paid on behalf of a victims children is deemed to be collateral source, then the amount
should be reduced by a consumption factor in the same manner that is employed in step five of the
tables to calculate Economic Loss.
